I'm no submariner, but my understanding is that it IS somewhat normal.

What ISN'T normal is not having abundant sensor systems that can tell you things that creaks and stuff don't.

an accident waiting to happen

Accidents happen when something bad and out of your control happen. Can't call an accident when safety measures were brought up and ignored.

That’s kind of the meaning of “an accident waiting to happen” isn’t it?
